Not everyone was simply a zombie's zombie. Take Teresa Rakes, who has carved out her niche as a Spock zombie from Star Trek.
In her fourth year in Thriller, she said, her motto is a variation of the Vulcan's watchword on the TV series: "Be undead and prosper."
"I'm a staple now," she said, lurching toward a spectator.
Neal Scott and Tiffany Jones came together as zombies — his seventh outing, her first. He was wearing a fuzzy green dinosaur costume that was a reference to the Fox situation comedy The Tick, which aired in 2001. Her costume was inspired by the character Harley Quinn from Batman and featured a gaping chest wound fashioned from liquid latex, toilet paper and fake blood.
Britta and David Eden said that donning their zombie costumes and makeup takes about an hour. She was dragging a pink stuffed toy, and part of his face appeared to be falling off.
"We wait for this all year," David Eden said. "We come early so we can scare everybody."
But it would not truly be Lexington's Thriller until Elvis had entered the CenterPointe pasture.
Zombie Elvis, also known as Steve Belt, has dressed up as the King of the Rock and Roll Undead five times now.
His friend Denise Crosby said that Belt spotted the lack of the Elvis presence early on in the Thriller series.
Now, Belt said as he made his way across the meadow to greet spectators, "I have a core following."
Led by Mecca Dance Studio of Lexington, volunteer zombies — estimated this year at 1,500 — learn to dance in that special menacing and jerky zombie manner and apply makeup to look like the undead.
This year's Thriller began with a pre-party at 6 p.m. and a Thriller showcase at the CentrePointe block between 6:30 and 7:30. It finished with the Halloween parade at 8 p.m. and the piece d'horreur, the Thriller parade, at 8:30 p.m.

Olivier Le Clainche, né en 1977 à Malestroit dans le département français du Morbihan et mort tué à Afrine en Syrie à l'âge de 40 ans le 10 février 2018, était un militant libertaire et indépendantiste breton de tendance internationaliste. Il était communément connu sous le nom de guerre de « Kendal Breizh ».

Olivier Le Clainche avait également été à l'origine d'une Coordination pour une Bretagne indépendante et libertaire.

Biographie

Langues
N'étant pas issu d'une famille bretonnante, Olivier avait appris la langue bretonne, langue qu'il utilisera comme animateur derrière le micro de Radio Bro Gwened, une station de radio en langue bretonne installée à Pontivy.

Il s'est aussi formé dans d'autres langues : le gallo et le basque, par des stages.

Vie professionnelle
Olivier Le Clainche avait deux brevets de technicien supérieur :  un BTS en informatique et un autre BTS en comptabilité. Il a également exercé une multitude de métiers : technicien informatique, surveillant d'internat, ouvrier dans le secteur automobile. En 2010, il officie en tant que stagiaire en langue gallèse à la radio Plumfm où il découvre l'univers de la radio. Puis il exerce, comme journaliste stagiaire à Radio bro Gwened, le 17 janvier 2011.

En 2014, il devient journaliste pigiste à France bleu Breizh Izel.

Combat avec les YPG
Étant très ouvert sur le monde et curieux des cultures, Olivier Le Clainche s'était intéressé à la cause des Kurdes, à la fois engagés contre Daech et subissant les attaques de la Turquie.

En juillet 2017, Kendal Breizh est parti combattre auprès des Unités de protection du peuple (YPG), une milice kurde considérée comme « terroriste » par Ankara, mais alliée des États-Unis dans la lutte contre le groupe État islamique.

Selon Ronan, l'un des responsables de l'association des Amitiés kurdes de Bretagne, Olivier était intéressé par le projet des Kurdes de fonder une société politique de démocratie directe, libertaire, pour les droits sociaux et respectant parfaitement l'égalité entre les hommes et les femmes.

Après une formation militaire sur place, Olivier Le Clainche avait entamé une deuxième période de six mois avec les Unités de protection du peuple kurde.

L'YPG précise, dans sa nécrologie, que le Français quadragénaire a participé aux combats ayant contribué à libérer les villes syriennes de Raqqa et Deir-Ez-Zor des mains du groupe État islamique, avant de se rendre dans la région d'Afrin.

Iran volleyball players win 2014 Asian Games gold
Emad Askarieh
Iran men's national volleyball team has finished in the first place at the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea, after it achieved a convincing victory over the Japanese squad.
On Friday, Iranians ended their campaign with a well-earned win over the Japanese outfit and overpowered their opponents 3-1 (28-26, 23-25, 25-19 and 25-19) at the Songnim Gymnasium.
The Japanese side opened the game in a convincing fashion, taking an early lead. Iranian sportsmen then established themselves and eventually finished the set at 28-26.
The Japanese volleyball players took the game to the wire in the second set, and got the chance to close the gap. They took advantage of the Iranians' mistakes, had proper coordination and team unity, and managed to steal a 25-23 victory.
The Iranian volleyball players regained the lead in the third set, and continued to exert a spell of pressure on their rivals. They won the set 25-19.
The outcome of the first and third sets inspired the Iranian squad to play with more vigor in the last set. The Iranians managed to exhibit an almost spectacular performance, and finished the final set at 25-19.
In the other match of the day, South Korea swept China 3-1 to claim the bronze medal.
The 2014 Asian Games began in South Korea's northwestern city of Incheon on September 19, and will wrap up on October 4.
Some 9,500 athletes from 45 countries are competing at the Games. The sports event is the world's second-biggest multi-sport event after the summer Olympics, with 439 gold medals in 36 sports up for grabs.
Iran has participated in the tournament with 276 athletes in 22 sports.
Emad Askarieh has worked as a journalist since 2002. The main focus of his work is foreign policy and world diplomacy. He started his career at Iran Front Page Media Group, and is currently serving as the World Editor and the Vice-President for Executive Affairs at the Iran Front Page (IFP) news website.

The word 'filled' means - to be satisfied fully, saturated with fulfillment. Deut 33:23, Psa 16:11.
You cannot hunger after righteousness if you don't know what it means.
Righteousness is a relationship, a state, a position - to be right with God. Righteousness is a condition for a satisfied life.
Living right as God intends it.
Why do I need to live righteously?
It is the way to live as a Christian and it is the way to get to heaven.
A righteous life draws the anointing.
A righteous life activates the blessing.
To have a longing to live right.
How can I maintain my spiritual hunger?
3. Remember He first loved you when you were unlovable.
4. Make knowing God your number one goal. Isa 1:3.
5. Remember that appetite is influenced by association. Pro 2:20.

Yarmuth said inspectors told the group they have found "some other issues" with the bridge, but he would not elaborate.
Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer, a Democrat, said keeping the bridge closed until engineers determine what repairs are needed was clearly "the responsible thing" to do.
Federal law states that emergency grants may only be used to fix or rebuild bridges that have been "seriously damaged by natural disasters or catastrophic failures due to an external cause." The law says the money cannot be used for bridges that have been permanently closed because of imminent danger of collapse, although at least one exception has been made.
Yarmuth said he and Young are working on legislation that would make the Minton eligible for federal emergency money.
Yarmuth said he believes President Barack Obama should visit the Minton later next week instead of a planned trip to the Brent Spence Bridge, which carries traffic on Interstates 71 and 75 between Cincinnati and Covington.
Obama plans to visit that bridge to push his jobs program.
Yarmuth said he's reached out to the White House through a congressional liaison and U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.
"Maybe ... next Thursday they will take a detour. We hope so," the congressman said.

Marky's Dry Cleaners Offers FREE Pick-Up, FREE Delivery & $10 Dollars Worth Of FREE Dry Cleaning To Give His Service A Try!
Call 940-323-2200 to get going or go here and sign-up online!
Most dry cleaners that pick-up and deliver charge you a fee or increase their prices–even with these high gas prices, I don't! Hi, my name is Mark, I live in Denton and I run Marky's Dry Cleaners, a dry cleaning home delivery service.
We have 4 stores and 2 delivery vans. I started this business just over 23 years ago and my 3000+ customers love me. Why wouldn't they?
I save them time and money, just like I would do for you. And how do I do that?
You don't have to run back and forth to the dry cleaning store any more–I'll save you the time and the $3.69 per gallon gas money. And I'm not expensive. In fact, I'm less than quite a few dry cleaners in town and my quality is second to none.
Most people don't realize it but it costs less to have a driver and a van than having a dry cleaner's store. With a dry cleaner's store you have to be open at least 12 hours a day and you have to have one or two people there all the time. And don't forget the rent and utilities. With my delivery vans, I have someone in it for about 8 hours a day and my only expense after that is the cost the van (which is way less than paying rent) and some gas.
Enough of why it doesn't cost more. You and I both know that it's a pain in the neck to drop off and pick up your dry cleaning at the dry cleaners. Most of the time it sits in your car until you remember to drop it off. And then it sits at the dry cleaner until you remember to go pick it up (and hopefully they're open). And if you've got kids–you have to get all of them out of your car and lug them in the dry cleaning store with you.
Why not let me show you the luxury (without the cost) of dry cleaning pick-up and delivery?
You'll put out your dry cleaning on Monday in one of my beautiful bags and miraculously it shows up on Wednesday or you put it out with a note saying "next day," and it shows up Tuesday. Or you forget to put it out, or you just got back from vacation or a business trip–you call us, we'll pick it up and it shows up the next day. Now that's dry cleaning nirvana, isn't it?
Besides dry cleaning and laundering your shirts, we dry clean comforters, tablecloths, linens, blankets, drapes, suede, leather, area rugs and most anything you can think of. We will also do alterations, recycle your hangers; take away your Goodwill (and provide you with a receipt).
$5 dollars for your broken buttons.
I don't know about you, but I get really mad when a shirt comes back from the dry cleaners with a broken button. So here's what I've done: you'll get $5 dollars cash for any buttons we miss that are broken. Don't get me wrong, we didn't set up this policy so that we could give away five-dollar bills–we set it up so that we would meticulously check your buttons to find the broken ones so we don't loose the five bucks.
No start-up fee. Try with no obligation. $10 off your first load.
We'll stop by and give you one of our bags. You can give our service a trial month or so and see how I do. If I do great, we'll continue to service you. If I don't do so good, we'll part with no hard feelings. How does that sound? Great! Give me a call at 940-323-2200 or just sign up here and we can get this time-saving and money-saving dry cleaning pick-up and delivery service going.
Oh, I forgot. Here are some of my prices: laundered shirts-2.10, pants-4.40, suits-9.20, blouses-4.80, car coats-8.45-14.65, ties-3.40. If you'd like some other specific prices, just click on prices at the top of this page.
Stop driving yourself crazy. You don't have to go pick up your dry cleaning any more. You don't have to be a millionaire to have this service. You just have to have about $30 dollars or more of dry cleaning a month. And on top of all of this, our dry cleaners is very easy and friendly to do business with. Pick up your phone now and stop the misery. Call me at 940-323-2200 or go here and sign-up online!
P.S. Call me at 940-323-2200 or go here and get signed up! Remember it doesn't cost any more to have us pick up and deliver your dry cleaning. Put your dry cleaning out and fill it up with as many clothes as you can for the $10-Dollars-Off special.

Mary Welsh Hemingway (născută Welsh; ) a fost o jurnalistă și scriitoare americană, care a devenit cunoscută mai ales ca a patra soție și văduva scriitorului Ernest Hemingway.

Tinerețea
S-a născut pe 5 aprilie 1908 în orășelul Walker din statul american Minnesota, ca fiică a unui tăietor de lemne. În 1938 s-a căsătorit cu Lawrence Miller Cook, un student la teatru din Ohio. Căsnicia lor a fost scurtă, iar cei doi soți s-au despărțit curând. După despărțire, Mary s-a mutat la Chicago și a început să lucreze la ziarul Chicago Daily News, unde l-a cunoscut pe Will Lang Jr.. Cei doi s-au împrietenit și au lucrat împreună în mai multe misiuni jurnalistice. O schimbare în cariera ei a avut loc în timpul unei vacanțe la Londra, când Mary a obținut un nou loc de muncă la ziarul londonez Daily Express. Această poziție i-a permis în curând să obțină misiuni jurnalistice la Paris în anii premergători celui de-al Doilea Război Mondial.

Jurnalistă în Al Doilea Război Mondial
În anul 1939 a devenit corespondent de război în Franța, cu gradul asimilat de căpitan în cadrul Royal Air Force, transmițând reportaje până la căderea Franței. În vara anului 1940, după ocuparea Franței de către Germania Nazistă, Mary Welsh s-a întors la Londra, unde a scris articole informative despre evoluția războiului. Ea a participat, de asemenea, la conferințele de presă ale lui Winston Churchill și a transmis declarațiile prim-ministrului britanic pentru ziarul la care lucra.

Ea s-a căsătorit în timpul războiului cu jurnalistul australian Noël Monks, care a devenit cel de-al doilea soț al ei.

Căsătoria cu Ernest Hemingway

Începutul relației

La sfârșitul lunii mai 1944 Mary Welsh l-a întâlnit pe scriitorul american Ernest Hemingway, care sosise la Londra încă din martie pe post de corespondent al revistei Collier's Weekly (în locul soției sale) și se cazase la Hotelul Dorchester. Mary Welsh lucra atunci pe post de corespondent de presă al revistei Time și locuia în același hotel cu o colegă de cameră, iar Hemingway a rugat-o să ia prânzul împreună  și apoi a vizitat-o în cameră câteva nopți mai târziu, prilej cu care i-a relatat povești despre satul său natal, Oak Park, și la plecare i-a spus că vrea să se căsătorească cu ea. Jurnalista americană a presupus că el glumea și i-a replicat că ar fi "foarte prematur". Cei doi au devenit prieteni apropiați, iar Martha Gellhorn (soția scriitorului), care a venit imediat la Londra după ce a aflat că Hemingway a avut un accident de mașină, a înțeles din comportamentul grosolan al soțului ei că mariajul lor urma să se încheie. Până la sfârșitul anului, Hemingway a alternat călătoriile pe câmpurile de luptă din Franța cu relația sa de dragoste cu Mary Welsh, consumată în camerele Hotelului Ritz din Paris.

Mary Welsh a depus cerere de divorț de jurnalistul Noël Monks în ianuarie 1945, dar procedurile judiciare s-au prelungit până în luna septembrie. În acest timp, Monks i-a scris o scrisoare pe 8 februarie 1945 în care i-a spus pe un ton sarcastic: "Nu știu dacă să te felicit sau să-mi pară rău pentru tine. Sunt sigur că trebuie să fii una dintre cele mai invidiate femei din toată lumea. Ai aruncat un șprot în mare și ai prins o balenă. [...] În toate săptămânile astea, m-am confruntat cu toți acești tipi și am socotit că te-ai săturat de ei. [...] Știu că nu aș putea niciodată să concurez cu domnul Hemingway. Nu aș putea să mă potrivesc nici în ceea ce privește barba lui.".

Rănit în luptele din iarna anului 1944 la granița germano-belgiană, Hemingway s-a întors la New York și apoi în Cuba, unde Mary Welsh i s-a alăturat în mai 1945. Cei doi au avut un accident de mașină în luna următoare, în urma căreia scriitorul și-a rupt patru coaste și a suferit o rană la cap, iar Mary Welsh a dobândit o tăietură pe față. Prelungirea divorțului lui Mary Welsh a făcut ca divorțul lui Hemingway de Martha Gellhorn să fie înaintat abia în septembrie 1945, fiind pronunțat la 21 decembrie 1945.

Călătorii

Mary Welsh s-a căsătorit cu Hemingway la 14 martie 1946, în cadrul unei ceremonii care a avut loc la Havana (Cuba). Temperamentele lui Welsh și Hemingway erau foarte compatibile unul altuia; în timp ce soția anterioară a lui Hemingway se simțea iritată de eforturile lui de a-și afirma dominația, Mary Welsh scria: "Nu am vrut să fiu egala lui Ernest. Am vrut ca el să fie Stăpânul, să fie mai puternic și mai inteligent decât mine; să-mi amintesc permanent cât de mare era el și cât de mică eram eu". În august 1946 Mary Welsh a avut un avort spontan din cauza unei sarcini extrauterine.

După nunta lor, Mary Welsh și Ernest Hemingway au trăit mai mult de un an în Cuba, apoi au petrecut toamna și iarna anului 1947 în orășelul montan Ketchum din statul american Idaho, unde au luat parte la partide de vânătoare, au revenit în februarie 1948 în Cuba, unde Hemingway a scris romanul Islands in the Stream, și au călătorit în nordul Italiei (septembrie 1948 - aprilie 1949), în principal în orașele Veneția și Cortina d'Ampezzo, unde au vizitat locurile pe unde trecuse scriitorul în timpul Primului Război Mondial, au participat la vânătoare de rațe în mlaștinile Veneției și au schiat în Munții Dolomiți. După un șir de întâmplări mai puțin fericite (un flirt al lui Ernest cu o venețiancă de 18 ani pe nume Adriana Ivancich, ruperea piciorului lui Mary la schi în ianuarie 1949, infectarea cu erizipel a ochiului lui Ernest în martie 1949 și transportarea scriitorului la un spital din Padova), cuplul s-a întors în Cuba la sfârșitul lui aprilie 1949. În următoarele șase luni Hemingway a scris romanul Across the River and into the Trees, pe care l-a finalizat într-o cameră a Hotelului Ritz din Paris, unde călătorise cu Mary și cu agentul său literar, Aaron Hotchner. Cei trei au călătorit apoi în sudul Franței și la Veneția, apoi au revenit în Cuba în aprilie 1950.

Hemingway, care era tot mai bolnav, a finalizat în Cuba romanul Islands in the Stream și a început să scrie romanul Bătrânul și marea, timp în care Mary s-a ocupat cu treburile casnice. Moartea într-un interval scurt a mai multor apropiați (mama sa, fosta sa soție, Pauline, și editorul Charles Scribner III) au diminuat vitalitatea lui Hemingway, care și-a concentrat resursele în scrierea cărților. Succesul scrierilor și un avans considerabil din partea revistei Look pentru o serie de articole despre un safari în Serengeti au oferit ocazia soților Hemingway să călătorească în Europa și în Africa. Ei au părăsit Havana în iunie 1953 și au călătorit în Spania (unde au luat parte la Festivalul de la Pamplona), în Kenya, unde au luat parte la un safari ce a avut loc din septembrie 1953 până la 21 ianuarie 1954, când avionul cu care survolau zona cascadei Murchison s-a prăbușit în urma ruperii unui fir telegrafic, la Veneția, unde și-au recuperat sănătatea până în mai 1954, și apoi din nou în Spania. Soții Hemingway s-au întors în Cuba la 6 iunie 1954, unde, în luna octombrie, Ernest a primit vestea că i s-a decernat Premiul Nobel pentru Literatură. Sănătatea lui Hemingway s-a deteriorat tot mai mult, scriitorul alternând perioadele de scriere euforică cu cele de depresie severă.

În 1958, pe când se mai aflau încă în Cuba, Mary Welsh a avut o apariție cameo într-un rol nevorbitor, alături de soțul ei, în ecranizarea cinematografică a romanului Bătrânul și marea (1952) al lui Hemingway, care a fost realizată de John Sturges. În acel film Hemingway a interpretat rolul unui pescar bărbos care conversează cu alți pescari în cafeneaua cubaneză, iar Mary a apărut în rolul unei turiste americane.

În ianuarie 1959, după răsturnarea regimului Fulgencio Batista în urma Revoluției Cubaneze, Ernest Hemingway a cumpărat o casă în orășelul montan Ketchum din statul american Idaho, de unde putea urmări în liniște evenimentele revoluționare din Cuba pentru care avea o mare doză de simpatie. Scriitorul a călătorit în Spania în vara anului 1959, timp în a început să aibă schimbări bruște de dispoziție care au înspăimântat-o pe Mary și i-au îndepărtat pe prietenii lor. În toamna și iarna anului 1959 și apoi în primăvara anului 1960 Hemingway a muncit din greu, scriind un număr mare de pagini, iar în vara anului 1960 a călătorit din nou în Spania, de această dată fără Mary, care a rămas la New York. Comportamentul scriitorului a devenit tot mai incontrolabil după întoarcerea lui la Ketchum și a impus internarea lui în Clinica Mayo în perioada noiembrie 1960 - ianuarie 1961 pentru a fi tratat cu electroșocuri de hipertensiune arterială, afecțiuni ale ficatului, paranoia și depresie severă. Hemingway a fost adus din nou la Clinica Mayo la sfârșitul lunii aprilie, după două tentative de suicid, pentru un nou tratament cu electroșocuri, dar a fost externat la 26 iunie 1961.

Mary Welsh a fost trezită în primele ore ale dimineții zilei de 2 iulie 1961 de un zgomot puternic și a descoperit că soțul ei s-a împușcat "complet deliberat" cu pușca lui preferată. Potrivit biografului James Mellow, Ernest Hemingway a coborât la ora 7 dimineața în subsolul casei sale din Ketchum, a descuiat dulapul unde-și ținea armele de vânătoare, a urcat pe scări în holul de la intrarea din față a clădirii și s-a împușcat cu "pușca cu două țevi pe care o folosise atât de des încât ar fi putut să-i fie un prieten". Mary Welsh, ceilalți membri ai familiei și prietenii scriitorului au declarat inițial presei că moartea lui a fost "accidentală", dar într-un interviu pe care l-a acordat presei cinci ani mai târziu văduva scriitorului a recunoscut că Hemingway s-a sinucis.

Viața ulterioară
După sinuciderea lui Hemingway în 1961, Mary a devenit executorul său testamentar și a fost responsabilă pentru publicarea postumă a cărților A Moveable Feast, Islands in the Stream, The Garden of Eden și a altor creații literare. Ea i-a dăruit manuscrisul lucrării memorialistice A Moveable Feast Tatianei Kudriavțeva, o traducătoare din Uniunea Sovietică, care a reușit apoi să publice o traducere a cărții în limba rusă la scurt timp după apariția versiunii originale a cărții în limba engleză.

Mary Welsh Hemingway a scris o lucrare autobiografică intitulată How It Was ("Cum a fost"), care a fost publicată de editura Alfred A. Knopf din New York în 1976. Mai multe detalii biografice despre Mary Welsh Hemingway sunt incluse în numeroasele biografii ale lui Ernest Hemingway, precum și în cartea The Hemingway Women a lui Bernice Kert.

În ultimii ei ani de viață, Mary Welsh Hemingway s-a mutat în New York, unde a locuit într-un apartament de pe 65th Street. A murit în urma unei boli îndelungate la St. Luke's Hospital pe 26 noiembrie 1986, la vârsta de 78 de ani. Prin testament, ea a cerut să fie înmormântată în cimitirul orășelului Ketchum, lângă Ernest Hemingway; mormintele celor doi soți se află în același cimitir.

Eric Nichols selling his house- Leaving Las Vegas with Larissa Lima?
Tue Jul 28, 2020 at 6:38pm ET
By Meredith Testa
Eric on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?. Pic credit: TLC
Fans first met Larissa Lima's boyfriend, Eric Nichols, on 90 Day Fiance shortly after Larissa separated from her ex Colt Johnson.
When Larissa and Eric broke up shortly after they started dating, fans assumed that Eric was just a short-term rebound for her, but Larissa proved that theory wrong when she got back with Eric just nine weeks after the initial breakup.
The two are still together today, and rumors are swirling that it's getting more serious.
Is Eric following Larissa out of Vegas?
Larissa announced earlier this month that she's planning to move out of Las Vegas. The reality star didn't say exactly where she wanted to move, but did say that she's "exploring the change for a new begging in a different state."
Now, eagle-eyed 90 Day fans have spotted a Facebook post by Eric offering up his home for sale.

Eric said in the post that he's hoping to close the sale by August 25th, which is less than a month away. The asking price for the three-bedroom, two-bathroom house is $240,000.
Hilariously, Eric described the house as being "on national television" and "tucked in the back of the colda sac." That 'colda sac' sure is tempting.
Larissa Lima says goodbye to glasses, former 90 Day Fiance star gets LASIK surgery, continues to improve...
We'll see more Eric on Happily Ever After this season
Fans have seen quite a bit of Eric this season on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?.
After a not-so-successful search for love, Larissa turned back to Eric for companionship. Her friends weren't too happy about that decision, and Larissa was even kicked out of the house she shared with her friend Carmen for the relationship.
But alas, it seems to have all worked out for the best. Larissa and Eric quarantined together, and their relationship has surprisingly outlasted Colt and Jess'.
Fans can expect to see Larissa and Eric's relationship continue to grow throughout the season.
Larissa has also been dealing with immigration issues- although she came to the US legally, the domestic violence charges she accrued during her turbulent relationship with Colt are jeopardizing her chances to stay in the country.
Despite the precarious immigration situation, Larissa has been living it up while in the states. She's gotten all kinds of cosmetic work done and told her lawyer that she dreams of one day practicing law in the US.
Fans will have to stay tuned to see what's ahead for Larissa.
90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? airs on Sundays at 8/7c on TLC.

Well I seen you in the sadness, I seen you when you'd hope to die, I heard you say, well it's raining all over the world / What did I tell you, what did I say / Just when your faith is gone, give it one more day.
The Wood Brothers recently performed to a sold-out crowd at the Hamilton in Washington, DC. Thirty minutes after doors, the line to get inside still stretched down the city block. Once inside the multi-level venue, a quick scan of the crowd revealed the band's cross-generational appeal.
After a solo set by Philly-based Mutlu, Chris appeared briefly on stage to set down a couple of props, including a vinyl album cover of Little Walter (the blues singer and harmonica player). A while later, Oliver and Chris took the stage, accompanied by multi-instrumentalist Jano Rix. The crowd clapped, an excited woman yelled out "I love you!" and then an anticipatory hush fell across the room before the band launched into "Neon Tombstones," off their excellent new album (you can and should purchase The Muse here).
The Hamilton fits 450, yet the set felt more intimate than that. People danced; some cheered at the opening notes to favorites like "Postcards from Hell," and "Luckiest Man." Chris showed off his moves during "One More Day," setting down the bass and dancing across the stage to appreciative whoops from the audience. For the encore, the crowd was treated to a cover of Michael Jackson's P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing).
The Wood Brothers are just so darn good at capturing vignettes of life and conveying them in a way that seems familiar and universal. These shared stories are important, and nostalgia serves a purpose. A concert is both an individual and collective experience. The songs stir up different recollections and emotions in us, but the shared experience reminds us of roots and continuity, enabling us draw on the past as we move forward–sometimes reminiscing, always persevering.
When I die I wanna be sent back to try, try again / I'm not ready to let go of the pain, I'm not ready for heaven, so let me off of this train.

Q: Set default printer using power shell in Java I have the following problem. I would like to print my docx output automatically using power shell commands in Java.
So far I am using this snippet to print
private static void printOut() throws IOException {
        Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
        String command = "powershell Start-Process –FilePath  \"" + yourDocXPath + "\" –Verb Print";
        System.out.println(command);
        Process proc = runtime.exec(command);
        InputStream is = proc.getInputStream();
        InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(isr);
        String line;
        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            System.out.println(line);
        }
        reader.close();
        proc.getOutputStream().close();
    }

Is there a command I can insert in order to set the default printer(by name)?

A: Yes you can add these codes to get the default printer in java:
PrintService defaultPrinter = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
String printerName = defaultPrinter.getName();

Edit:
Use this powershell command to set the printer and print:
String command = "powershell Set-Printer –Name \"" + printerName + "\" -KeepPrintedJobs $true; powershell Start-Process –FilePath \"" + yourDocXPath + "\" –Verb Print";


On what occasions did the town pipers play music? Since when could one listen to the radio in Germany? These are some of the questions that you will find in a Music Trail Discovery Pass ("Notenspur Entdeckerpass"), which premiered in a joint event of the MDR Children and Youth Music Network CLARA. The Discovery Pass, or "Entdeckerpass", invites children to make musical discoveries on the Leipzig Music Trail, actively supported by Toni, the mascot of the Little Leipzig Music Trail ("Kleine Leipziger Notenspur").
The children and other guests of the presentation event at the MDR Studio listened to the music by Bach, Schumann, Wagner and marveled at the costumes and instruments. The audio samples for children presented at the 12 stations of the Notenspur were to hear as well. Thus, the objective of the Little Leipzig Music Trail became apparent: to create opportunities for all-round exploration of music and city history.
The Leipziger Notenspur (Leipzig Music Trail) is a cross-generation project, which enables children to make their personal experiences in the field of classical music by means of play. A great number of composers of the Leipzig Music Trail, including Richard Wagner, Clara Wieck, Robert Schumann, Edward Grieg, Leos Janacek and Georg Philipp Telemann, spent their childhood, youth or student years in Leipzig. Apart from that, the numerous children of the composers were born here.
The Little Leipzig Music Trail leads you through the selected stations along the main Music Trail with its 23 information points. The task to find trails (presented by stainless steel inlays of the route guidance system) in a public area awakens curiosity and discovery spirit in children, their parents and grandparents.
Families can search for trails together – it will be an exciting experience for everyone! Leipzig's famous musicians and their children come to life in audio samples developed especially for children and available via phone at the 12 spots.
History can be experienced at these stations with the help of the stories and riddles in the Discovery Pass. The young discoverers who responded to the tasks correctly will be rewarded!
The Notenspur Discovery Pass ("Entdeckerpass") can be acquired against a nominal fee of 2,50 € at some of the Notenspur Stations during their opening hours, e.g.: at Bach Museum, Mendelssohn House, Schumann House or the Tourist Information Office. The filled pages with riddles can be handed in there as well.
Notenspur, Notenbogen, Notenrad und Notenweg sind eingetragene Wortmarken.
Markeninhaber ist der Notenspur Leipzig e.V.

Q: BeautifulSoup returns empty list with valid html content I'm trying to build a webscraper for a hungarian e-commerce site called https://www.arukereso.hu.
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup
import requests

#The starting values
#url = input("Illeszd ide egy Árukeresős keresésnek a linkjét: ")
url = 'https://www.arukereso.hu/notebook-c3100/'
headers = {'user-agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/86.0.4240.75 Safari/537.36'}
page_num = 1
allproducts = []

#Defining functions for better readability
def nextpage():
    further_pages = usefulsoup.find("div", class_="pagination hidden-xs")
    nextpage_num = page_num + 1
    try:
        next_page = further_pages.find("a", string=str(nextpage_num))
        next_page = next_page['href']
        return next_page
    except:
        return None

while True:
    if url == None:
        break
    r = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
    page_html = r.content
    r.close()

    soup = soup(page_html, "html.parser")
    #print(soup)
    usefulsoup = soup.find("div", id="product-list")
    #print(usefulsoup)

    products = usefulsoup.find_all("div", class_="product-box-container clearfix")
    print(products)
    for product in products:
        allproducts.append(product)

    url = nextpage()

print(allproducts)

The problem is that when the nextpage() function is first called, it returns a valid link (https://www.arukereso.hu/notebook-c3100/?start=25), the request's content is also valid html, but BeautifulSoup makes an empty list out of it, therefore the program ends with an error.
I would be grateful, if someone could explain the reason for this and how to fix it.

A: I am not sure why it happens but scrapy could be a good solution to solve this kind of issue
https://scrapy.org/

A: The problem in your code is following line:
soup = soup(page_html, "html.parser")

When loop runs first time it works because soup name is not overwritten yet. Next time it runs the soup method from package is overwritten and that is why you have the problem. Rename this variable and it should work. I have tested it.

Free dictionaries for all, and other efforts to appease critics of Pa. prison crackdown
by Samantha Melamed, Updated: October 19, 2018
Keir Neuringer, a member of Philadelphia's Books Through Bars collective, sorts through packages of books that were supposed to go out to Pennsylvania prison inmates but were held back in September, 2018, after the Department of Corrections stopped allowing direct book donations.
DAVID SWANSON / Staff Photographer
Forty-five days after launching a slew of unprecedented and controversial security measures across state prisons, the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections is calling the initiative a success: The number of drug finds, inmates' positive drug tests, and misconducts written for drug-related activity all were cut in half or close to it. The department also credited the new security protocols with a slight decline in the number of assaults in prisons.
The department also announced a number of new policies meant to answer criticisms by advocates, inmates, and families, who have railed against measures like the elimination of direct book purchases and book donations to inmates, a procedure that provides inmates with photocopies of their legal mail rather than the originals, and a $15.8 million, three-year, no-bid emergency contract to divert all other inmate mail to a company in Florida to be scanned and digitally forwarded.
PA prisons' unprecedented security crackdown: 5 things you need to know
Among those solutions: free dictionaries for every inmate who wants one, paid for out of funds collected from inmate purchases; a new secure email system for legal mail; and a centralized book-donation hub.
"One of the most-discussed policies is mail, especially books," Corrections Secretary John Wetzel said Friday in a statement. "We hear what inmates, advocates, and families are saying; we listened, and are addressing those concerns."
Advocates, though, are not impressed with the preliminary plan — and a representative of Books Through Bars, the Philadelphia-based book-donation program, said it would not participate.
>>READ MORE: PA prisons' unprecedented security crackdown: 5 things you need to know
Bret Grote, a lawyer with the Abolitionist Law Center — which along with the Pennsylvania ACLU and the Pennsylvania Institutional Law Project has warned the department of a likely federal lawsuit over the legal mail policy — called the notion of a secure legal email service "an outrage." He said it comes no closer to protecting attorney-client privilege than the policy of photocopying inmate mail.
"The Department of Corrections needs to stop restricting our ability to use the mail to communicate with our clients," he said. "The DOC acknowledges they have zero evidence any attorneys are attempting to send in contraband via legal mail, and if any individual attorney were to do that, then that individual should be held to account. An email system is not adequately secured. Attorneys should never be in a position where all of our communications with our clients are being run through a digital platform controlled by the government and, in many cases, our adversaries in court."
He referenced reports from a few years ago that Securus — the company with the Pennsylvania prisons phone contract — recorded supposedly confidential attorney-client phone calls, and that those recordings were exposed in a massive data breach. Securus denied that there was any evidence privileged communications were recorded.
The department also reported a decline in staff illnesses related to exposure to synthetic cannabinoids since the security measures began. Experts in medical toxicology, as well as some emergency-department directors at Pennsylvania hospitals where the staff were treated, argued such exposures are improbable. They suggested those illness were likely triggered by anxiety rather than by any toxic exposure.
Pennsylvania Department of Corrections
The DOC released a report to show its policies to stop drugs from entering state prisons are working.
Keir Neuringer, a member of Books Through Bars, said he would likely not participate in a DOC-run book donation program, in which the Department would gather inmates' requests by genre and then send them to donation programs to be fulfilled.
"We're not volunteering to work for the DOC for free," he said. And, he said, a request for a genre, like black history, is not the same as a letter from an inmate that articulates a specific area of interest, like memoirs by 1960s civil rights leaders. "We scrutinize these letters. We're trying to help people further their transformation, not just fill in these requests in a kind of meaningless way, which is what the DOC's proposed solution looks like. … It cuts off our communication with incarcerated people. And that is a violation of our First Amendment right and that won't stand."
He added that there's a reason dictionaries are the most-requested book: the dictionaries the DOC offers through the commissary are insufficient.
"'I need a dictionary that has more words' — that's common refrain," he said.
Above all, though, critics are not convinced that these measures were necessary in the first place. "These books-to-prisoners programs provide a great service and they're run by caring volunteers," Sean Damon of the Amistad Law Project, which has helped organize families against the new policies. "The DOC has conducted no investigation and provided no proof that staff were exposed to any substances through these book-donation programs."

Mepolizumab has been investigated in the treatment of severe nasal polyposis, among numerous other conditions.
The pharmacodynamic response (blood eosinophil reduction) following repeat doses of mepolizumab administered subcutaneously or intravenously was evaluated in subjects with asthma and blood eosinophil levels greater than 200 cells/mcL. Subjects received 1 of 4 mepolizumab treatments (administered every 28 days for a total of 3 doses): 12.5 mg SC, 125 mg SC, 250 mg SC, or 75 mg IV. Sixty-six (66) of the 70 randomized subjects completed the trial. Compared with baseline levels, blood eosinophils decreased in a dose-dependent manner. A reduction in blood eosinophil levels was observed in all treatment groups by Day 3. On Day 84 (4 weeks post-last dose), the observed geometric mean reduction from baseline in blood eosinophils was 64%, 78%, 84%, and 90% in the 12.5-mg SC, 75-mg IV, 125-mg SC, and 250-mg SC treatment groups, respectively. The model-predicted SC doses providing 50% and 90% of maximal reduction of blood eosinophils at Day 84 were estimated to be 11 and 99 mg, respectively. These results, along with the clinical efficacy data from the dose-ranging exacerbation trial (Trial 1) supported the evaluation of mepolizumab 75 mg IV and 100 mg SC in the confirmatory trials [see Clinical Studies (14)]. Following SC administration of mepolizumab 100 mg every 4 weeks for 32 weeks (Trial 2), blood eosinophils were reduced to a geometric mean count of 40 cells/mcL, which corresponds to a geometric mean reduction of 84% compared with placebo. This magnitude of reduction was observed within 4 weeks of treatment and was maintained throughout the treatment period.
Mepolizumab is an interleukin-5 antagonist (IgG1 kappa). IL-5 is the major cytokine responsible for the growth and differentiation, recruitment, activation, and survival of eosinophils. Mepolizumab binds to IL-5 with a dissociation constant of 100 pM, inhibiting the bioactivity of IL-5 by blocking its binding to the alpha chain of the IL-5 receptor complex expressed on the eosinophil cell surface. Inflammation is an important component in the pathogenesis of asthma. Multiple cell types (e.g., mast cells, eosinophils, neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes) and mediators (e.g., histamine, eicosanoids, leukotrienes, cytokines) are involved in inflammation. Mepolizumab, by inhibiting IL-5 signaling, reduces the production and survival of eosinophils; however, the mechanism of mepolizumab action in asthma has not been definitively established.
Following 100-mg SC administration in the upper arm of subjects with asthma, the bioavailability of mepolizumab was estimated to be approximately 80%. Following repeat SC administration once every 4 weeks, there was approximately a 2-fold accumulation at steady state.
The population central volume of distribution of mepolizumab in patients with asthma is estimated to be 3.6 L for a 70-kg individual.
Mepolizumab binds to IL-5 with a dissociation constant of 100 pM.
Mepolizumab is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that is degraded by proteolytic enzymes widely distributed in the body and not restricted to hepatic tissue.
The mean terminal half-life (t1/2) ranged from 16 to 22 days.
The population apparent systemic clearance of mepolizumab in patients with asthma is estimated to be 0.28 L/day for a 70-kg individual.

Skull: The skull is a collection of bones which encase the brain and give form to the head and face. The bones of the skull include the following: the frontal, parietal, occipital, temporal, sphenoid, ethmoid, zygomatic, maxilla, nasal, vomer, palatine, inferior concha, and mandible.
The early English word "skulle" came from the Nordic words "skal" and "skul" meaning a bowl. It is also thought that the Nordic toast "Skoal!" came from "skal" since ceremonial drinks were served in a bowl (or skull).

Q: Is there any difference in meaning between "bring on" and "bring about" in the sense of causing someone? Is there any difference in meaning between "bring on" and "bring about" in the sense of causing someone? For example:

The pandemic has brought about/brought on a lot of change.
The desease can bring about/bring on some complications.

A: Yes, there is minor difference.
Bring about means to cause to take place or effect. bring about.
The first sentence would be more correct as follows -

*

*The pandemic has brought about a lot of change.

This is more appropriate because the pandemic has caused the changes to take place.
Bring on means to cause to appear or occur. bring on
The second sentence would be more correct as follows -

*

*The disease can bring on some complications.

This is more appropriate because the disease has caused the complications to occur.
Hope this helps.

Identification | Look-alikes | Biology & Habitat | Prevention and Control | New York Distribution Map
Japanese virgin's bower (Clematis terniflora DC, also called sweet autumn clematis) is an invasive ornamental vine in the Clematis genus. It is widely planted in gardens for its profusion of small, showy white flowers in late summer and equally showy silvery, corkscrew, feathery seedheads. Given support it can reach 30' in height. Its prolific nature and aggressive growth make it a problem in natural areas, where it can smother mature trees and displace native vegetation. Japanese virgin's bower is on New York State's regulated species list; it can be transported, purchased, sold and planted, but it can only be planted where it will not threaten natural areas, and must be displayed for sale with signs explaining that it is an invasive species.
Japanese virgin's bower is native to Japan and China. It was brought to North America as an ornamental species. Leaves are opposite and compound, with three to five heart-shaped leaflets 2-3½" long; the surfaces are dark green and shiny, paler on the undersides. It climbs using tendril-like petioles to cling to support. Flowers are about 1" across, white, four-petaled, and held in clusters of 3-15; the plant blooms in late summer to fall. Seeds are small and brown, with showy, silvery-grey, feathery, curving seedheads.
Look-alikes
Japanese virgin's bower looks like many other Clematis genus species; the closest match is a native plant also commonly called virgin's bower, Clematis virginiana. Flowers and seeds are similar between the two species, but leaves of C. virginiana are toothed and lobed as opposed to C. terniflora's entire, ovate leaves. The other Clematis have larger flowers of various colors; these ornamental species and hybrids are not particularly aggressive.
Biology & Habitat
Japanese virgin's bower can survive a wide range of soil types and light availability, although it is most productive with shade on its roots and full sun on its foliage. It establishes in hedgerows, waste spaces, roadsides, stream banks and forest edges. It is a semi-woody perennial, producing foliage on new stems each year. In southern climates it is semi-evergreen. Japanese virgin's bower produces shoots from last year's woody stems in spring. It flowers in August and produces seeds by late September, which are dispersed by wind.
Cultural: The similar native virgin's bower, Clematis virginiana, has many of the same ornamental characteristics as Japanese virgin's bower and is less aggressive. They are so similar they are sometimes sold interchangeably at nurseries. Planting a native or noninvasive alternative will reduce the chances of this invasive damaging nearby natural areas.
Monitoring: Japanese virgin's bower is most easily seen in the late summer, when it produces a froth of white flowers. Otherwise, look for a vine with small, oval- to heart-shaped, opposite leaves. There is currently no research on control of this species; all information is from gardening and extension sources.
Manual and Mechanical Control: Remove the plants and its roots. Some root fragments may resprout, so repeat visits may be necessary. Given the plant's prolific nature, expect seeds still in the soil to continue to sprout new plants for some time. Research on the longevity of C. terniflora's seeds in the soil is not available.
Biological Controls: Currently there are no biological controls for Japanese virgin's bower.
Chemical Controls: Japanese virgin's bower responds to control with glyphosate and triclopyr and other common broadleaf herbicides, with no known resistance issues. However, all will require repeat treatments (Langeland and Meisenburg, 2009). Before using chemical controls, always check with your state's environmental regulatory agency to check on the legality of using any particular chemical.
New York Distribution Map
This map shows confirmed observations (green points) submitted to the NYS Invasive Species Database. Absence of data does not necessarily mean absence of the species at that site, but that it has not been reported there. For more information, please visit iMapInvasives.

Q: List passing by "reference" even though list() constructor used in Python I am trying to implement Karger's algorithm and am having trouble with lists in Python.
I have an input list input_v that should stay static throughout the program. Inside a while loop, I do max_iters iterations of Karger's algorithm with a list copy of input_v called vertices. At the end of 1 iteration of the inside for loop, it seems that all the logic I applied on vertices was also applied on input_v, even though I did vertices = list(input_v).
input_v = [[[1], 2, 3, 4], [[2], 1, 4], [[3], 1, 4], [[4], 2, 3]]

# Perform Karger's n^2ln(n) times to ensure p > 1-1/n
for i in range(0, max_iters):

    vertices = list(input_v)
    print 'new loop'
    print vertices
    print input_v

    #Contract edges n-2 times to find A and B
    for j in range(0, n - 2):

        # length of current array
        len_arr = n - j

        #rand_vn => random index within current array
        #i_vn => true index of vertex from orig array

        # Randomly select 1st vertex (v1) to contract
        rand_v1 = randint(1, len_arr) - 1
        i_v1 = vertices[rand_v1][0][0]

        # Randomly select 2nd vertex (v2) connected to v1
        i_in_v1 = randint(1,len(vertices[rand_v1]) - 1)
        i_v2 = vertices[rand_v1][i_in_v1]

        for k in range(0, len_arr):
            if i_v2 in vertices[k][0]:
                rand_v2 = k

        for y in vertices[rand_v2][1:]:
            if y not in vertices[rand_v1]:
                vertices[rand_v1].append(y);

        # Remove each other's indices from list of edges
        for q in vertices[rand_v2][0]:
            if q in vertices[rand_v1]:
                vertices[rand_v1].remove(q)
            # Add indices from v2 to v1 (supernode)
            vertices[rand_v1][0].append(q)

        for r in vertices[rand_v1][0]:
            if r in vertices[rand_v1]:
                vertices[rand_v1].remove(r)

        vertices.pop(rand_v2)

        print vertices

    del vertices[:]

And here's the output after shortly beginning the 2nd iteration.
new loop
[[[1], 2, 3, 4], [[2], 1, 4], [[3], 1, 4], [[4], 2, 3]] # input_v
[[[1], 2, 3, 4], [[2], 1, 4], [[3], 1, 4], [[4], 2, 3]] # vertices
[[[1, 3], 2, 4], [[2], 1, 4], [[4], 2, 3]]
[[[1, 3, 2], 4], [[4], 2, 3]] # vertices at the end of Karger's
new loop
[[[1, 3, 2], 4], [[2], 1, 4], [[3], 1, 4], [[4], 2, 3]] # input_v (seems to be a hybrid)
[[[1, 3, 2], 4], [[2], 1, 4], [[3], 1, 4], [[4], 2, 3]] # vertices

Q: Generating xml attribute value with XSL I am new to using XSL. I am trying to tranform data entered into a datacapture template and generate an xml file. I am capturing data that should be attribute values. I know that my paths are correct but I get an error during generation. Help!
<!-- <xsl:value-of select='odnodes/node/comments'/> -->
<node name="<xsl:value-of select='odnodes/node/name'/>"
      host="<xsl:value-of select='odnodes/node/host'/>"
      port="<xsl:value-of select='odnodes/node/port'/>"
/>

The end result would look something like this:
<!-- uat server - added 2/7/2013 -->
<node name="webserver_uat" host="192.168.1.1" port="20014" />

A: Attribute Value Templates are your friend here. The correct syntax for what you are trying to achieve is
<node name="{odnodes/node/name}"
      host="{odnodes/node/host}"
      port="{odnodes/node/port}" />

The curly braces here indicate it is an expression to be evaluated, as opposed output literally.
Note, you could also use xsl:attribute to create attribute:
<node>
   <xsl:attribute name="name"><xsl:value-of select="odnodes/node/name" /></xsl:attribute>
   <xsl:attribute name="host"><xsl:value-of select="odnodes/node/name" /></xsl:attribute>
   <xsl:attribute name="port"><xsl:value-of select="odnodes/node/name" /></xsl:attribute>
</node>

But as you can see this is more verbose, and you would only really need to do it this way if you wanted 'conditional' attributes. (i.e You wrap one of the attributes in an xsl:if, for example, or vary the attribute name depending on a value in the input XML).
